Year 5's new topic in PE is OAA, which is designed to encourage children to explore the outdoors, as well as develop a range of physical and mental skills, like critical thinking and problem solvng. Year 5 enjoyed their tasks of getting into correct places in lines (for example, alphabetically or in height order) using non-verbal comunication skills to solve the problems! Fantastic work Year 5! Mrs Blomeley
Autumn Term 2 in Year 5 will be action packed in more ways than one! Our new topic is 'Can you crack the codes to become a Spy?' A firm favourite in Year 5, this topic presents some fantastic opportunities for writing! The children will create interesting character descriptions and mysterious settings, resulting in spine tingling spy narratives! They will adore Spy Day, with its opportunity to dress up as their very own spy, as well as being able to design and make their own spy gadgets! Here is the Medium Term plan for this term, together with the Home Learning Challenge Grid.

Last week, some Year 5 and 6 pupils took part in a tag rugby competition against other schools in Tameside.
Our A team qualified for the finals winning 2 games, drawing 1 and losing 1, scoring 8 tries overall.
Our B team came 5th in their group scoring 7 tries.
Both teams used both attacking and defensive strategies that they have learnt with Charlie from the Jason Robinson Fou ration and showed great teamwork throughout. Well done Broadbent Fold!
